They say that whenever tragedy strikes it causes us to become more reflective (for future readers, the tragedy in this case is the Aurora, CO Theater Shooting). I don’t know if that is always true, but since it occurred my … Continue reading The Good Stuff
The NCAA finally dropped the hammer on Penn State earlier today, slapping the university with a $60 million fine, a four-year ban from bowl games, a reduction in scholarships and several other punitive measures as part of the fallout from … Continue reading Penn State Penalties: A No-Win Situation
Back when I was working in the mall at the calendar kiosk, I used to make little comic doodles using stick figures – “The Adventures of Dog and Dragon” I believe. One of the girls I worked with was quite … Continue reading That Stick Has a Nice Figure
We haven’t had bullets for a long time now. I think part of that is because there’s been plenty of stuff going on, both related and unrelated to the show. But we’re back, mostly thanks to a weird work schedule … Continue reading Number Six With a Bullet
Well folks, I’m a bit behind on things but figured I should probably start somewhere. Seeing as Spider-men #3 is already out I figured I’d probably get my review for number 2 up and running before I fall way behind. That said, this story arc is still shaping up to be one of the biggest things to happen in either Peter Parker or Miles Morales life! Although things in this issue don’t really hit any of those huge emotional moments that I’m sure a lot of readers like me are hoping for, this was still an important issue for helping brings Peter Parker (and readers) into the fold of the Ultimate Universe.
Oh! And if you missed my review of issue number 1, you’re in luck! It’s right here waiting to be read… Continue reading “Spider-men #2 Review”

There’s a decent chance that Super Mario Kart is the game I’ve played most my entire life. It sounds a little strange to put it that way, but it’s true. When my dad bought me a Super Nintendo, the first … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Super Mario Kart
Hey everyone! In my typical fashion I have been doing everything in my power to play the living ba-Jesus out of The Secret World, as that is what I typically do when I get a new game, burn through it. But with Funcom’s new MMO, I’m presented with a bit of a dilemma – the game is too open, expansive, and deep for me to want to burn through it. So while I normally try to cruise through an MMO’s story missions at the quickest rate I can in order to see and hear what’s really going on in the world, I can’t help but feel I’d be missing out if I did so.
What is it about The Secret World that is holding me back? Surely other games have tempted me as well right? Well, yes. But the modern world that Funcom has created for their new games is not only full of hidden secrets, awesomely creepy monsters and tons of hidden goodies to find; it’s also filled with real, true blue, characters. Something few games have ever had. Continue reading “The Secret World: Characters with character”
